Say hello to the Ascent, the latest addition to the DaVinci line of vaporizers. It's a beautifully designed vape with a clean, modern look that's about the size of an iPhone but a little fatter. Although it isn't the smallest vaporizer available it can easily fit in your pocket and has a very durable feel to it.

The front of the vaporizer has a bright OLED programmable display which ranges from 38 to 450 degrees Fahrenheit to let you lock in the perfect temperature. Regardless of whether you want a lower temp for a longer session, or a higher temp for bigger clouds, the vapor quality is superb. The retractable glass mouthpiece not only makes it very portable, but gives the vapor a clean flavor that you can't find with plastic units.

How it's uniqueWhat differentiates the Ascent from other portable vaporizers is its ability to vaporize concentrates as well as herbs. This is a feature that's usually reserved for stationary units but the Ascent does a fantastic job with concentrates. On top of that, the Ascent has an absolute top-of-the-line battery. It takes around five hours from a full charge to die which is leaps and bounds ahead of many other portable vaporizers. You can easily squeeze in three sessions per charge.

Recommended forThe well-rounded traveler. The Ascent's battery life gives you plenty of time to vape on the go, as well as use concentrates. It's safe to say the Ascent is one of the best portables out there right now.
